1 – Five Key Things You Need to Focus on
This podcast is designed to help you cut through all the crap and find out what to do and what not to do when it comes to marketing and growing your trade business.
My name is Annette Welsford, Founder of Commonsense Marketing and Tradie Marketing Secrets and I’m horrified by some of the awful stories I’ve heard from tradies who’ve been ripped off by unscrupulous advertising and marketing people.
Quite often they don’t even know they’ve been ripped off until I ask a few questions they can’t answer, yet they’ve paid good money to get a new website built or for SEO services or for google adwords advertising.
In coming episodes we’re going to explore business success tips for tradies in a lot more detail. We’ll look at all types of marketing and advertising and business systems, and many different types of trade businesses.
